The class often concentrates on Bible study but occasionally studies the works of inspirational writers such as C.S.Lewis, focusing on what the text holds for us today as a congregation seeking to be faithful to Christ as well as what is relevant to its members and to neighbors outside its walls. About twenty women and men sit around a rectangular table arrangement, enjoying coffee and lively discourse facilitated by a rotating team of teachers including Judy Cagle, Phyllis Driver, Lanny Payne, Odgie Oliveira, Gordon Ford and Craig Wrisberg. The teaching style tends to be teacher led with frequent interruption for lively discussion as opposed to lecture. Bibles are available for those who forget theirs but many class memeber bring their study Bibles to suppliment the discussion. Class members enjoy occasional social gatherings and support several service projects.
Gordon Ford will lead the beginning of a new study on Esther and Ruth beginning on September 7.
The Discipleship Class is on the same level as Fellowship Hall and is located below the Chapel. For additional information, call Ron Mayer at 922-1168 or email Ron at ronmayer@comcast.net.
